So you're putting "tea" in quotes like he said Ruby is tea is inappropriate. He didn't and wouldn't call it tea.

Not "tea", Mr "American Asshole" cheers D Kennedy, London I guess no one will read this now, but a “Ruby” = Ruby Murray which is cockney rhyming slang for Curry. Not “tea”, Mr “American Asshole”

I mean it was a great place if you like huge chunks of plaster falling off the ceiling. There are too many places in KC with real character to find a "good pint of Guinness". Kennedy's - RIP Well I have been to Kennedy’s before, and it was a shithole. I mean it was a great place if you like huge chunks of plaster falling off the ceiling.

The strange thing was that just before the fire happened I had planned to write this post anyway, and then I guess felt it was the last chance. I miss the place, which is why I kept going. Fair enough.

The friends you suggest I didn't have, were several feet away. Does context mean anything to you? And I didn't drink there more than any other bar; you might want to try reading the post a third time. Most of what you say is just nonsensical name-calling, so there's little point in addressing it, but for anybody else who is reading I should point out that anybody familiar with O'Donoghues would be familiar with their unique way of serving to which I am alluding. If you're going to insist on replying with just silliness rather than substance, you'll be wasting your time.

Ruby Murray what born in Northern Ireland you idiot and the term Ruby lives on as slang for what you eat at tea time. It even made it down to Ireland. I do read. You wrote alone at the bar...bars and tables are two different things. The only friend you need for a drink is the bartender. If you drank there more than any other bar, why were you not friends with the bartenders? Oh wait dont tell me - they could care less about losers and ping tracking IT nerds like youself who don't know how to tip properly. I've also spent plenty of time in Dublin and O’Donoghues for that matter. They probably just gave you the beer as a reflex to get you to leave, and go back to your table. Maybe the UK will take you since Ireland didn't want you and neither does Kansas City... Ha!

How many friends does one need to get served anyway? In most pubs anywhere in the world you usually just need to meet the legal minimum age requirements. Perhaps you manage to order drinks without making eye-contact, but I haven't witnessed too many people pull off that trick - <em>O'Donoghues</em> of Dublin's Merrion Row excepted. Tell me though, what's Ruby and Tea? Something you drink in southern Africa? And why would I go back to the UK when I came from Ireland? Reading's not your strong point, is it?

If you wanna gaze into the barman's eyes to pick up your at the wrong bar. Go back to the UK and order a Guiness with your next Ruby and Tea.
